I love the Macintosh SE! Nice to see it featured here. Also enjoyed seeing the Macintosh II.

Subject: A good view on the varying philosophies of Apple Computer

This episode contains a priceless performance by yuppie-style representatives talking fast in french accent about the new mac models which "since this is a mac, have got lots of ports". With these new models Apple is departing from the Jobsian notion of keeping the computer locked up from hardware alterations. We have come full circle.
Also witness the amazing power of the 256 color lookup table and check out that new game called Dark Castle!
